Soliloquy from Kid Gloves by DUDE
Soliloquy, the last song on Kid Gloves was written in 2004 as an addition to Before The Day Got Away. Encouraged by friend and fellow musician Ross Westerbur, Ross thought Before The Day Got Away was just too short of a song, which is not entirely wrong to say, however Soliloquy needed to stand apart. This song represents ‘drawing lines in the sand’ and ‘taking sides. ‘ DeNardo again struggles with himself and the man he has become, “The clouds cast a shadow on you”. But in the end, mind wins over body and DUDE decides to pick the side of action and humility, ushered in by the sounding of the horns to end this album and forecasting a triumphant return to mental health and a 2nd album.

Lyrics
Soliloquy
I can’t believe in the act of yer treason Goes unexplained The sun is out shining, the birds are all winging The clouds cast a shadow on you
All day, you waste complaining on What makes you so grey? Blue skies, the wind is whipping up a cloud surprise Miles Away
Meet me ‘round back by the old grey shed Climb on the back of my motorped
